Default Re: Can this be Aces?

[ QUOTE ]
MP3 here is 91/30/1.4. His limp re-raise pre-flop makes Aces a consideration, especially when he keeps 3 betting me.

I call the 3 bet flop so that I don't shut him down giving me a chance to raise again on the turn. I don't cap the turn as I am seriously considering that he has Aces. Was I too passive here given that his stats mark him as a LAG player, and should I ALWAYS cap this regardless of the outcome?

Monsters under the bed anyone?

Against normal players I fold preflop as the best we can hope for is 50-50 with the usual 3-bet range. Since villian is a super-lag preflop &amp; raises more hands than I call with preflop, I might consider capping to try &amp; isolate MP - this is read dependent, some players raise with junk but won't 3-bet with AA, KK, AK, QQ, JJ ... then again he might 3-bet with 7s or A10.

That said I cap the flop and turn then call a river bet. His AF isn't ridiculous enough to cap the river and it appears there is only 1 hand that can beat you (2 by the turn). If AF &lt; 1 my line would be to cap the flop, raise turn &amp; call down from 3-bets onward.

EDIT:
My mistake, his AF is more ridiculous than previously thought.
